Histoire
Commentaire à la une
Suffering from unconvincing psychology and a false "surprise" ending, "Cat and Mouse" is otherwise an effective femme fatale story, notable for the perfect acting by Jeanna Fine in the lead role. As often is the case, she's far better than the script.
Story begins with her as an unusual obscene phone caller, who works in tandem with Brandy Alexandre. Their first mark is Scott Irish, with the movie swiftly moving into standard homewrecker mode, as she maneuvers to sleep with both Scott and his wife Cassidy. Unfortunately, it's not believable how she accomplishes this, but a porn viewer is expected (and likely) to suspend disbelief in order to enjoy the sex.
Her partner Brandy is similarly successful in homewrecker approach with Mike Horner, resulting in a rather preposterous gathering of the cast together, not for the reading of a will or other "Knives Out" scene, but rather to stress voyeurism and kink as other sexual configurations are forced on the "innocent" victims.
The sinister nature of Jeanna's performance holds the thin movie together, and the attempted clever ending doesn't ring true. In a mainstream movie a few rewrites would have upped the credibility of each twist and turn, but instead director Michael Craig presents us with a take it or leave it attitude towards storytelling that is a letdown.
